The bridge contraction scour depth and pier scour depth calculations are explained in the following three posts - Horizontal Contraction Scour, Vertical Contraction Scour (Pressure Flow Scour), and Local Pier…
Bridge scour analysis is often required to design a new bridge or evaluate an existing bridge. Bridge scour depth is a critical bridge design component for foundation calculation. The scouring…
The hydraulic opening width (area) of a skewed bridge is less than its unskewed value, which in turn would adversely impact the bridge hydraulic performance. The skew angle is defined…
